Embassy
The Spanish word 'embajada' translates to 'embassy' in English. An embassy is a diplomatic office or mission that one country appoints in another country to represent its affairs. Embassies generally provide services like issuing visas, taking part in trade activities between the two countries, and aiding its citizens who are visiting or living in the foreign country.
I am going to visit the embassy tomorrow.
This sentence describes a future action plan to visit the embassy. 'Voy a visitar' translates to 'I am going to visit', making this a useful construction for discussing future plans or intentions.
I used to work at the embassy in Madrid.
This sentence uses the imperfect tense 'trabajaba' to indicate a repeated or ongoing past action. The preposition 'en' is used to show the location where the action was performed, in this case, at the embassy in Madrid.
The embassy is closed on Sundays.
This sentence informs about the embassy's schedule. The verb 'está' is used because the closure is a temporary state, not a characteristic, and 'los domingos' clarifies the specific time when the embassy is closed.
